Questão jurídica principal
Whether the complainant had standing as a victim to file a criminal cassation appeal
Decisão extraída
He did not establish direct physical, sexual, or psychological injury of sufficient gravity caused by the alleged offences, so he was not a victim under the Victim Support Act and lacked standing.
Fundamentação extraída
Property loss alone does not confer victim status. For property offences, victim status exists only if the offence directly causes a sufficiently serious bodily or psychological injury, which must be shown or at least made plausible by evidence. The appellant alleged psychological harm only in vague terms and produced no medical proof.
